  scale_fill_manual(values = morandi("Two_Variables2"))

Heatmap

morandi_heatmap_palette <- morandi("Melancholy", 100, type = "continuous")
## make some dummy data
set.seed(123)                                           
data <- matrix(rnorm(100, 0, 10), nrow = 10, ncol = 10)           
colnames(data) <- paste0("col", 1:10)                             
rownames(data) <- paste0("row", 1:10)
## apply morandi palette
heatmap(data, col = morandi_heatmap_palette)
